drhree Years h the Ranks. .

Although the weather was bad last
evening, and there was an admission
fee of half dollar to the hall, the
audience that assembled to hear Mr..
Richard +. Booth lecture on his three
years as a private in the Union army
was apparently no smaller than those
that attended to hear his temperance
lectures, when everybody was urged to
come.
Rev. J. A. Cruzan made introduc-
tory remarks, but before the lecture be-
gan violin solo was given by Mr..
Yarndley, and Mrs. Hanford sang with
thrilling effect, TThe Star Spangled
Banner" the audience joining in the
chorus.
Mr.. Booth spoke under great diff
culties, being unable 10 conceal his
suffering of physical distress Yet he
succeeded in holding the rapt atten-
ton of the audience from first to last,
often convulsing them with laughter
and often stirring up their heart emo
tons, as he tod s.ories Of the comical
side, or pictured the awful scenes, or
described the sad spectacles of war.
In opening he said that he was not go
ing to give historical or a critical
lecture. He related the story of the
outbreak Of the war and of the en-
thusiasm of the people in enlsting,
when one State raised So,oo men in
eighty days and five States sent $4,000
to the front in twenty days; also Of his
own enlistment, with two brothers and
their father in "a New York regiment,
his early and many Of his later expert
ences under fire. There were many
fine passages in the lecture, such as
the panegyrIc on John Brown, the de
scription of the battle OF Gettysburg,
the surrender of Lee, return home Of
soldiers, and, lastly, prediction of the
grand results of Anglo-Saxon union in
the future. Mr.. Booth did not forget
the moral campaign in which he was
engaged, either, for he drew strcnl
arguments for abstinence out Of Incl

WAYS AND MEANS.


Where is the Government to get
means for carrying out the ordinary
and necessary services Of the country
during the current period1. This is a
question that must be growing upon
the people, when they see the revenues
going like smoke for purposes both ex-
traordinary and unnecessary. The Leg
islature made appropriations for four
and half millions Of expenditure,
while the most sanguine estimate of
revenue is only three millions Even
subtracting the appropriations provided
for in the loan bill, there must be at
least round million excess Of author
ized expenditure over the largest prob
able revenue. AT the same time the
country is face to face with threat
ened shrinkage in values Of all classes
of property in the Kingdom, which
would put statesmen on their best skill
in carrying the country through on the
most economical bill Of expenditures.
With the loss of advantages now pos
sessed by treaty in the American
market for our principal staple, which
apparently is imminent in the shape of
a reduction il not abolition Of the sugar
duty in the United States, the bottom
would be liable to fall out Of the whole
economic fabric of Hawaii. In view
of this danger, it is OF he utmost inn
portance that the administration OF
public affairs should be in most skillful
and prudent conduct. Under shadow
of such an impending crisis, nothing
would stand the nation in such good
stead as pluck and selfreliance. These,
qualities, however, are not to be foster
ed under any course Of extravaganza
and improvidence in the management
of national affairs. Capitalists, who
under other circumstances might boldly
stake their means in promoting the
development Of fresh resources, wher
the old ones began to fail in returns
will, in sight of reckless national admin
istration, be disposed to make haste il
transferring their wealth to investment
abroad. 1t is rot necessary to sa,
that this would mean panic, ruin, th'
retirement OF civilization from these
Islands to give place to Mongoliar
ownership and institutions, unless o
until some strong Western Powe
should step in and fear colonial fabric
on the ruins of Hawaiian indepen
dence. How long are the property
holders and taxpayers Of the countr,
going to stand by and witness withou
remonstrance, not to say resistance. t
the wasting OF the national substance
and the imperilling Of the nationa
prospects, in carrying out the wilC
dreams of Missionaries and the selfsl
schemes Of all sorts of adventures

to cost about quarter Of million thu

During the night the Federal forces dropped

The same day, in the afternoon, the hot
fight at Glendale came off. AT Willis church,
near the village, McCalrs division was posted.

and Gaines Mill, having been reduced from
10, 900 to 5000, but il was here again, fighting
in the thickest Of the battle at Glendale.
Kearneys division was at the right of Mccall,
as they faced southwark. Summers corps
was to the left Of Mccall, with Hooker's
division on Summers left. Hooker and kear'
ney belonged to Heintzelman's corps.

A NOVEL GAME BOARD.

The disk may be of any appropriate size,
AMI is provided with handle and formed
with holes arranged and numbered as shown
in the cut To the enlarged portion of the
handle is secured bail, which acts as sup
port for the marble used in playing the game,
Should the marble leave the disk, it would be
prevented from falling to the floor by the ell
circling hoop The main feature of the game
is to cause the marble to pass from the bail
around the disk, past the several holes, to
and around the central hole, and back again
to the bail. The marble should pass the holes
marked with the lower numbers first, but II
it should fall from the outer edge of the disk,
or into either one of the two large inner open
ings, 40 count could be made. 1t is evident
that the shape of the disk and the arrange
ment of the holes may be changed as desired.

that fated 2oth of June was at Willis
church. near Glendale. It was sharp
sl,irmsh with Confederate cavalry on the
Quaker road, by which Mcclellan was re
treating With the great number of Con-
federates drawing nearer and nearer to hiS
right, and Jackscn's men after him in the
rear. this retreat of Mcclellan to the James
was no childs play.
June 50 Mcclellan had reached his new
headquarters at Malvern hill near the
James. But the army of the Potomac had
by no means arrived there. 1t had yet more
fighting before it ere 1t rested on the James.
In this bloody retreat fighting enough was
done and lives enough were sacrificed to have
taken Richmond many times over if the Fed
eral generals had only known how to do it.
Three roads leading out from Richmond
intercept the Quaker road by which McClel-
Ian retreated When Keyes began his retreat,
he fortunately discovered an old road run
ming parallel with the Quaker road lie
struck that, and hy hurrying his men along
it, reached Malvern Hill speedily. double
line of troops was thus also formed against
the Confederates. The two routes appear on
the map
There was a constant danger of attack by
the Coufcdcrates along the cross roads, nj
ready mentioned, leading from Richmond,
namely, the Charles City, Central and New
market roads. As soon as Lee discovered
the line of McClellans retreat he ordered
Hill and Longstreet to'recross to the south
side of the Chickahomny and follow south
and intercept the Federals. TIE Central lonl
runs into Long Bridge road, and that crosses
the Quaker road. At the intersection Of the
Long Bridge and Quaker roads Hill and
Longstreet found part of the Federal forces.
A mile further on, at the Junction of the
Newmarket and Quaker roads, McCaIrs dtvi-
sion was posted
: Then took place the sixth contest of the
seven DAYS fighting-the battle of Glendale,
sometimes called also the battle of Nelson's
Farm-Monday, June 80. 1t is called, too,
the battle of Frazer's Farm.
In all the stubborn fighting of the PENN

throwing up of intrenchnentS or the selection

was unfortunate for his fame US military

On the perilOus retreat to the James he
went ahead, TO Malvern Hill to James river

at Glendale the general in chief knew nothing
about it till late at night. He had been part
